Which risk increases when wooden rope-bridge towers tilt outwards?

💡 Explanation

If towers tilt outwards, compressive force decreases, reducing Friction Clamping on the rope anchorages because ropes slide as towers become less vertical; therefore tensile load tolerance decreases rather than increasing stability or changing deck behavior.
